Wrestler pulls off unbelievable takedown in mid-air

Earlier this month at the FILA Junior World Championships, Iranian wrestler Iman Sadeghikoukandeh found himself in a tight spot. Russia’s Rashidov Gadzhimurad grabbed a hold of his leg during the semifinals and seemed to be trying to bring him down to the mat when Sadeghikoukandeh maneuvered an incredible flip for the takedown.

He won that match and then went on to beat American Joseph McKenna for the gold.
